The Red Sage, a woman covered on colorful red and orange feathers, with a calm and composed voice, and a fancy demeanor.

The Gray Sage, an old and tall man, covered in gray and black feathers alongside a few scars over his body, he was a wise old man, the oldest of the three surviving Sages.

And the Blue Sage, the youngest of them all, a carefree and youthful man with azure feathers and a colorful beak, he had yet to learn a lot about the world and magic, but he had great talent after developing it for a bit over a hundred years.

These three were the Sages, people in the world of Eden whose power over magic was outstanding, they had both talent and incredible knowledge, not only talent was needed, but the motivation to learn and experience life and everything on it, this was the way to unlock the forbidden power of magic.

The ancient Red Sage was a woman that had once lost everything to war in the past, after that, and more, she managed to escape slavery, and used her magic to survive… until she realized the true culprits behind it all, the Cult of the Dark Lord of the Depths. They were even behind the fall of her Kingdom, and how she recalled her people suddenly being brainwashed by strange mystical waves of magic.

She glanced at the surroundings of the Yggdra Duchy, realizing this truth, this… was probably what was happening here.

Her eyes had the power to see through magic energy, even through physical objects, a mere glance of her eyes and she was able to see the faraway city and what was occurring there.

"These bastards are doing this again! I can't believe it… What do they win with this?! Is their Dark God… truly real?!

" she wondered.

The Gray Sage, the oldest of the Sages, his life had been the longest, and he had experienced many things in life, had suffered many loses, and had also gotten over them eventually, a man that had lived for so long couldn't be easily amused, but he felt a growing intrigue inside of his mind about what was happening now, and about the culprit behind this.

"We were never able to truly guess if this entity… was truly real until now… but I always knew it was real, you always lack faith over the divine, don't you, red?

" sighed the Gray Sage.

The Blue Sage, the youngest of the three Sages currently alive had yet to experience has many life and experience as the other two old geezers, but he was already able to use powerful magic, and he had fought against the Cultists many times. His origins were rather normal, as he used to be an orphan that ended being adopted by the two Sages over his talent. But due to their bad parenting, he ended growing rather conceited and flashy in nature. Nonetheless, he was a strong Sage.

"Whatever ritual they're doing, it's already starting, I can feel the flow of mana change! They're doing something very sketchy there! We have to hurry! While the girl is taking care of the Spawns, we have to quickly take this entire place down!

" he said.

"In a hurry as always, youngster.

" Said the Gray Sage

"Patience is a virtue.

" Said the Red Sage.

The Blue Sage was about to lose his patience with these two old geezers!

"Hurry!!!

" he roared.

He waved his hands as he unleashed two streams of water, impacting two more of the lackeys inside the castle, and quickly knocking them out into the ground

SPLAAASH!

"HAH!

"

The Red Sage moved swiftly like a true damsel, delicately and precisely, her entire body was coated in flames, and her powerful kicks clashed over the faces of her enemies, hitting them strongly and then setting them on flames one after the other.

"HM!

"

And the Gray Sage controlled light and darkness together, catching enemies with his shadows, piercing their bodies with spears made of light, and defeating anyone that got closer to him through beams of light.

The three rushed through the corridors, as they reached the large door, the Blue Sage kicked it open, as they were suddenly greeted by a woman and the Duke…

This was the throne room.

The woman was coated in purple feathers, and had sharp crimson-red eyes.

She was sitting over the throne, actually.

And below it, there was the Duke, prostrating himself to her…

"You're here at long last. My Masters had told me about you, the Sages… To think I would have the honor of taking all three of you down.

" She said while laughing.

The three quickly felt an enormous aura of darkness coming out from her… it was… chaotic!

The three quickly realized… this woman…

"Your magic affinity…! It can't be!

" said the Red Sage.

"I never thought I would see another with such an affinity…

" said the Gray Sage.

"That affinity is… No… Didn't the last one that had it was… the supposedly called Vessel of the Dark Lord of the Depths that you defeated three hundred years ago?!

" asked the Blue Sage.

"At the expense of the life of the Green Sage… yes…

" sighed the Red Sage.

"This woman… No, this affinity is… artificially put into her body…

" said the Gray Sage.

"Oh yes, you guessed right. I am not even a person born from my mother's egg… I was designed for my role, and since I was born that I've been working for the sole purpose of fulfilling the mission that I was created for.

"

The woman stood from her throne, as her aura of chaos began to spread around the room, space and time started to distort itself!

The three Sages looked at her while opening their eyes wide open!

A sudden domain suddenly trapped them all inside a chaotic space, where time and space were distorted, endless spiraling chaos was the only thing they could find everywhere!

"Welcome to your resting places, Sages.

" She said.
